Anyone struggling to get baby number 2??

[Button#]

Oh no Tooty, I'm sorry.

 

[slg76]

I'm sorry tooty. How disappointing. I am glad that you got a clear answer though.

 

[Mrs W 11]

Sorry Tooty I'm glad you are able to look at the positives and that you have an answer. Your clearly can get pregnant so hopefully your sticky bfp isn't far off now.

Sorry I didn't reply to your photos last night, I had logged off. I hope you are able to enjoy your weekend. X

It's OK, Thank you for all your support, don't be silly Mrs w, I know that noone was probably around at the moment I put the pics on lol, I knew deep down it didn't look right anyway. Thanks again x

 

[Mrs W 11]

sending huge hugs your way sweetie.

How's everyone's weekends been? I've had a lush weekend with family at the beach but I've had horrible anxiety. No idea why

 

[tootyfruity]

Mrs w that rubbish! Do you normally suffer with anxiety? It's a horrible feeling I've suffered for years although most of the time it's under control with meds.

 

[Button#]

Had a lovely weekend, nothing out of the ordinary but nice and relaxed.

Sorry to hear you're feeling anxious mrs W

 

[Mrs W 11]

I'm a terrible worrier tooty and I get nervous about loads of things, but I don't often feel nervous and anxious for no reason. I do feel better now we are home and I've had a glass of wine and am in my pjs.

2014 has been a tough year so far for us. We lost a beloved pet who is so missed, had the mmc at 12 weeks and my gramps sadly passed away which was heartbreaking. And sometimes, since I now can't seem to get pregnant and my due date is 3 weeks away, life piles up on top of me and I feel like I can't carry on. But I do. Because I have to.

I think it's always better once you're home and in PJ's : )
That has been a tough time for you, you deserve some good luck so hopefully there good things for you waiting round the corner.
I hate not having control over certain things, so with ttc I find it such a roller coaster (as I'm sure a lot of other people do) especially as it's something I want so much.

 

[slg76]

Pjs make everything more manageable. I also struggle with depression/anxiety. The only time I get actual panic attacks (not very severe thank goodness) is when I'm over stressed in general. My phobias only kick in when stressed too. I hope you are feeling better. I'm sure being back in your own home helps too.

Spent almost 4 hours at the pool with dd today. I'm wiped out and a little crispy! But she will sleep great tonight

 

[tootyfruity]

It's surprising how many people do suffer!
Slg spending time at a pool sounds amazing right now, can't complain as was on holiday a month ago with a pool everyday .

Today my ds has his induction at his new nursery, and this afternoon im going to London for a hair show (I'm a hairdresser) then a meal and drinks after : )

 

[slg76]

We have an amazing community pool here. It's only about 2 miles from my house. It has very shallow water for the kids and water sprayers and a water slide. And, there are always a few lifeguards on duty (not that I trust them with dd!). I live in an amazing neighborhood!

It is amazing how many people suffer from depression/anxiety. People just don't talk about it. I've struggled since childhood. Mine seems to be very biological and I can't even function in life without medication. But, on my meds I'm perfectly happy and balanced and have no issues other than a little anxiety over some things (driving mostly).

DD and daddy had a camp out in the back yard last night! Emily was upset that they didn't have a campfire for marshmallows so we roasted them on the stove before they went outside. She actually fell asleep in the tent!! But, daddy forgot to turn off the sprinklers so the camping was over at 11:00

 

[slg76]

Have fun at your hair show tooty!! I always that that would be a fun career. I'm a scientist by profession but I have a strong creative streak that loves hair, interior design, and landscaping. Maybe my next career with be more creative.

Tooty - Hope your LOs induction went well and you had fun at your hair show.

Slg - lol at the sprinklers bringing the camping to an abrupt end!

Hi ladies, how are all of you?

AF showed this morning so I'm onto the next cycle. I need to order some more OPKs.

 

[Mrs W 11]

Sorry af showed button xx

I'm about 3 dpo at the moment. X

 

[Button#]

Fingers crossed for you Mrs W. Have you been taking more of a relaxed approach this cycle? I'm umming and aahing whether to temp again this cycle.

 

[Mrs W 11]

Well I haven't temped, I just find it too stressful as I analyse it all and ended up waking early and worrying! I know I ovulate now so I've stopped.

I've used some dual hormone opks and we dtd a lot! Every high and peak day plus a few days. I just feel like ill never get a bfp and I'm feeling really trapped now and a bit scared.

How about you, are you trying to be relaxed? X

 

[Button#]

I didn't temp the last cycle either but I think I keep starting DTD everyday too early. This cycle I'm going to be more relaxed hopefully as my mum will be staying in the week leading up to O. I'm going to try and not worry too much about when we DTD until I get a positive OPK as I don't ovulate until 2 days after that anyway.

I might just temp in the week before and a few days after O and then stop so I'm not overanalysing every temp during the TWW.

 

[Button#]

You're doing the clear blue trial aren't you? I signed up for it when it reopened last week.

It's tough thinking you'll never get another BFP but if you're DTD lots at the right time you've got a good chance that you will. We'll both get there one day.
